Target job seekers before they start job hunting and get ahead of the competition!
The benefits of recruiting using Facebook Ads
- Targeted Audience: Facebook’s targeting options are a secret weapon in your recruitment arsenal. You can reach potential candidates based on demographics, interests, behaviours, and location, meaning you’ll reach the right people.
- Large Reach: With over 2.7 billion active users, Facebook has a reach that’s bigger than a Super Bowl halftime show. You’ll be able to reach a larger pool of potential candidates than you would on a job board that’s only popular in a specific region.
- Cost-Effective: Compared to other forms of recruitment advertising, Facebook ads can be significantly more cost-effective. It’s like having a money tree in your backyard. You won’t have to mortgage your house to get more candidates.
- Measurement and Analytics: Facebook’s analytics and metrics are like a crystal ball for your ad campaign. You’ll be able to track its performance and make informed decisions about its effectiveness. No more guesswork and throwing spaghetti at the wall to see what sticks!
- Brand Awareness: Running Facebook ads can help increase brand awareness and create a positive image of your company, making it more attractive to potential candidates.
- Time Savings: Recruiting on Facebook is like having a personal assistant. You can reach a large pool of potential candidates with just one ad campaign, saving you time and effort compared to posting job ads on multiple job boards. With Facebook ads, companies can get their job postings in front of potential candidates quickly and easily, potentially resulting in faster hires.
- Access to Passive Job seekers: Facebook is home to countless job seekers who are not actively searching for a new job but are still open to change. By targeting these individuals, companies can tap into a pool of candidates who probably wouldn’t have thought of them otherwise, potentially skyrocketing their chances of finding the perfect match for their empty chairs.
Therefore, running Facebook ads to recruit workers is a smart and cost-effective way for companies to find top talent. By targeting job seekers before they start looking on job boards, companies can reach a wider audience, increase candidate engagement and fill open positions faster.
